Mulberry Silk Hankies
Who can resist the look and feel of silk? Silk is one of the strongest, most lustrous natural fibers. The natural beauty of un-dyed silk is stunning, but dyed silk is exquisite. An absolute must-have in every textile artist's stash! Silk hankies are created by spreading a silk cocoon over a wood frame. They are easy to pull apart for dyeing, felting, and spinning. These 'hankies' are for spinning yarn - they are NOT actual handkerchiefs.
Fed only leaves from the Mulberry bush, Bombyx mori silkworms produce the finest silk available. White in color, Mulberry silk is the most refined of all the silk varieties. Order Mulberry silk hankies for sale today!

"These are a favorite of my child's for spinning, and we are getting ready to dye his finished yarn. The hankies draft and spin up nicely, and he has plied them to polwarth/silk to make a gorgeous artsy yarn. Looking forward to purchasing more in the future."
"I had spun silk hankies some years ago and I thought I’d revisit them. I am plying them with wool. I’m making much better progress with predrafting them."
"I actually thought these we hankies; ie: Kleenex. I bought them thinking i would gift them to Mom once I dyed them. Little did I know I would have to spin it and then weave it into fabric! Good think I am learning to weave! :-("
"A beautiful product! I can’t wait to dye these."
"I love the silk hankies! You get a lot in a package and they are wonderful to spin! I’ll be buying more next year! Buy them with confidence from The Woolery!"
"These are getting harder to find and am so happy that you carry them. I couldn't be more pleased with them."
